Melrose In The OC

Always a good selection of seasonal clothing! The employees are very helpful and have good taste. It’s nice to be able to get a killer outfit at a local shop! I am so sick of outlet malls.

My family and friends rave about this place so I had to go check it out. Luckily I had time to pop in this morning and the clothes are so cute! All the girls are helpful and I just about bought everything they brought me. Super affordable and love the accessories! My def new go to clothing spot :)

Pros:
— An easy store to run into, if you need a simple wardrobe item
— Helpful clerks
— Great prices
— Great location
— Constantly adding new merchandise
— Nice selection of costume jewelry
Cons:
— Not Nordstrom quality clothing
— Small store, sometimes aisles are crowded & not easily navigated
— Return policy isn’t flexible or desirable
— Stays open later than most stores on Del Mar
— Doesn’t always have all sizes on popular items

I LOVED visiting this store. I had picked it out from Unilocal as I was new in town and it was totally worth it! Catherine is a real gem and excellent and clearly passionate personal shopper and stylist — perfect for a girl like me who can never seem to find the right clothes. Instead of buying one top for an evening occasion I came out with several, a pair of jeans and a jacket, all perfect basics and keepers to combine with anything. Loved it! Will tell all of London about ;-) — you’ll know what I mean xo

I LOVE this store, and Kathryn is THE BEST! I tried on 6 different things and nothing looked cute on me and I almost left, but Kathryn (Catherine?) offered to pick out a few pieces for me to try on that I somehow missed, and they were perfect! And she picked out the cutest earrings ever for me, and got me fashion tape, which I needed and would’ve missed. My fiancé loves everything I bought and I didn’t pick out any of it! Haha, thank you Kathryn!

I came in here the other day, I’ve been here before but never bought anything, the clothes are super cute and the staff is very accommodating, one girl in particular I don’t know her name but she was tall and skinny and had short reddish hair. She was very nice and super helpful, highly recommend this place

WOW! I totally LOVE LOVE LOVE this place. The clothes are super cute, really affordable and the staff is so nice! Everyone really helps you to find what you need and the service seems like they are working on commission except every single person in there helps you regardless of who started your room. They were so nice and the clothes are so cute, and my dog was welcome and stayed with me in the dressing room needless to say I left with a new wardrobe. I couldn’t be happier.

Came in today with nothing to wear and going to Vegas this weekend the girls were so friendly and helpful I have never walked out of a store so happy before they were amazing with helping me pick out outfits and I absolutely love everything that I got and I will be back for sure!!! Customer service was the most amazing for a clothing boutique!!! Thank you so much ladies!!!

Love Melrose in the OC! I took my daughter in for a dress and came out with 4 outfits for myself. Amanda was great helping me with sizes and different styles. I love the variety and comfort of the clothes and feel like I can look good and still care for my 3 year old at the same time. I highly recommend the store and professional staff for any occasion or day to day styles. The jewelry is wonderful also. I will be back soon

This is the only place I shop! Love it, the cutest clothes and I absolutely LOVE Katherine !!! She is the best !

Not only do they have the cutest clothes, they have the best customer service! Katherine is the best!

The staff were super nice and helpful. They gave me a free pen so I thought that was super cool!

The clothes are cute, but I bought a dress from here, washed it one time using the delicate cycle on cold wash, and it’s riddled with holes… Kind of upset I spent $ 40 on a dress so see-​through I had to buy a slip as well, only to have it literally fall apart after one wash. Bummer.

catherine was the sweetest!!! I love this store all the girls are always so friendly and helpful and the store is VERY aesthetically pleasing!!!

I can’t speak highly enough of Katherine and the experience I had shopping at this store. Not only do you have stunning clothing and accessories at such great prices, but the assistance I got from Katherine was unlike any other. Funnily enough, I didn’t buy anything that I picked, yet I bought all of what Katherine brought to the fitting room. She was so attentive and really grasped what I was looking for, what my color and style preference was, and what would look best on my figure! I will be buying ALL of my clothes here from now on! Thank you! I love my new wardrobe!

I have an obsession with this boutique! Their clothes are so cute and Katherine is my girl! She always helps me pick out outfits and accessories. All the girls are sweet. Best boutique in sc for sure!

The ladies who work here are so incredibly sweet and I couldn’t have asked for a nicer bunch to help me and my sister out while we were shopping.
My sister had her heart set on buying this rust red chiffon tank top thing but unfortunately the one in her size was… lopsided, for lack of a better word. For some reason, one part of the shirt hung lower than the other in the back and no amount of adjusting from her, me, or two of the store’s employees who came over to check on our fussing could fix it. My sister was heartbroken.
These ladies went above and beyond though, and aside from complimenting her on the color and cut of the shirt, helped her find the same shirt in a different color in the right size and even went so far as to check online to see if they had it in stock anywhere else. They didn’t have to go to such lengths, even if it’s only to secure a sale, but they did anyway and were so nice about it that my sister and I didn’t feel like they were trying to FORCE us into buying something. They were never pushy — they just really wanted to find my sister the EXACT item she was looking for.
I ended up leaving with a purchase of my own, but that’s neither here nor there. The customer service here is absolutely amazing and what other stores should strive for! If I’m ever in the area again, you can bet I’ll be making a stop here (plus the clothes are cute and affordable to boot)!

Great little gem of a store! Cute clothes that are very reasonably priced, and the employees are always so friendly.

Best clothing store in San Clemente! Love the girls that work here. They’re always so welcoming and helpful! The prices are great and there is always something new when I go in.

I love this store! The staff is absolutely amazing! I was greeted the second i walked through the door and through out the hour i was there, i probably got asked about 20 times if there was anything they could help me with. Clothes are super cute, staff was amazing, service was amazing and clothes are affordable! I have never felt so comfortable trying on clothes and they made me feel at home! Thanks Melrose, i will defiantly be coming back for more clothes! No more corporate clothing stores for me, it’s all about supporting your local business!
